Bill Maher is pretty damn conservative tbh

As of Salesforce didn’t suck enough as is

I mean the arguments themselves were fairly cogent, all things considered. The prosecution got grilled pretty damn hard too.

Because the app store isn’t the only way to install an app. It is trivially easy to side load apps and it’s well within the technologic skillset of the average 12 year old.

They’ve set it up so it’s a legal mess. The platforms aren’t given any mechanism to actually perform verifications (no double blind id system, for example) but are legally on the hook for each and every under-16 on the platforms. A quote in the article suggests it should be the app stores verifying which is even more fucking stupid.

I mean it doesn’t seem like his sister thinks it’s satire. Poes law etc

NYC has the lowest crime rate of any US major city by a lot.

Yeah I’m speaking from experience here in that about a third of my pay is in stock.

I wouldn’t say my pay is low though, for what it’s worth.

I hate OpenAI but this just seems like parents unable to process their grief.

I’ve seen how hard suicide is for parents to process and how much they blame themselves. Another option, one that doesn’t lead to the painful and repetitive soul searching, would be hard to ignore.

Tech is a bit different because a significant portion of your compensation comes as stock when you get higher up the ladder but yeah.

Corn syrup is no worse for you than any other sugar.

It’s definitely added to a ton of things but that’s because people like sweet shit. The corn syrup doesn’t hurt you - the overconsumption of any refined sugars causes diabetes.

Removing corn syrup and adding white sugar is just as bad.

The equivalent of 81k today is 62k in 2016.

If you graduated in 2016 and entered the workforce 62k would’ve been starvation wages in a lot of cities, but could sit you ok most other places.

You can hit “take screenshot” but it results in a black frame iirc. Same for screen record.

iPhone absolutely has this concept

Nah there are too many left radicalizing videos on the platform for Trump to ever approve. (Ignore the overwhelming torrent of Trumpets and MAGAtts on the app - they don’t matter to him)

My mid 20s were when I hit a major mental breaking point. If I hadn’t had a good support network of friends close to me and family I could turn to…

26 is old enough to feel like you’ve lost everything and that nothing will ever be good again. He left a good career for his morals and lost all hope of employment from it.

Unfortunately they walled garden themselves pretty universally. I’ve been on Tidal since Spotify fired all those people and have been really enjoying it.

Maybe I’m crazy but I feel like their recommended music is also way better.

This is happening because Spotify laid off half it’s staff and thought it could get away with it.

Hachette is one of the Big 5 publishers at 10% market share. Penguin Random house (25%), HarperCollins (11%) and Wiley (not big 5 but still ~10%) were also in the suit.

Hachette, Penguin and HarperCollins are basically half of all books that come out.
